Uriah decided to invite only his dearest and bestest friends for an exclusive game of truth or dare.

At precisely half past seven, the doorbell rang.

"Hullo!"

"Why isn't it the girl who beat me in initiation? Come in, Tris!"

The small blonde girl sits on a black plastic chair placed right in front of the closet. "That's my spot from now on!"

"Fine with me! Though I have to warn you, Zeke likes to sit there too!"

"Did he rank first?"

Uriah shakes his head.

"I thought so!" she says with a wide smile. She seems to be in a non-Abnegationy mood today. She ain't no pansycake, Uriah concludes.

"Open the door, Uri!" somebody shouts and kicks the front door.

Uriah opens it and lets Lynn, Marlene and Grace in. It was the first one that shouted and probably also the one who kicked. But it could have been Grace too. Sheesh! Anger issues…

"Oh hi, Tris!" they greet her and Uriah suddenly feels outnumbered.

"Zeke, come here!" he calls his brother for help.

"Yes?"

"Um… Where is… SHAUNA! Where is Shauna?" Uriah seems very glad to have thought of such a convenient question to ask in this difficult situation.

Zeke goes back to his room. He returns with Shauna. She waves.

"She was here the whole time?!" Uriah questions.

"Yes, yes she was."

"So, who are we still waiting for?" Marlene asks.

"Al, Will, Christina and Four,"

"FOUR? Four's coming too?" Tris' jaw drops.

"Yeah. Problem?" Uriah asks.

"No. I just wondered- why?"

"He and I are very good friends. Didn't you know?" Zeke explains. Tris shakes her head.

The doorbell rings.

"Hi." It's Four! He's wearing a black T, black jeans, black sneakers with a touch of red and a serious look on his face. And a watch, too!

"Hi Four? Why so grumpy? This is a party, put on a smile!"

"God, Uriah! It's like you don't even know him! Our Four is not very fond of smiling, aren't you?" Zeke says, patting Four on the shoulder. Four then sits next to Tris, which intrigues the crowd. They are soon distracted by a knock on the door.

Al, Will and Christina join them.

"Alright party people! Sit down, please!" Uriah announces.

Zeke is glaring at Tris who is still sitting in his spot.

"We have gathered today to participate in a really fun game called… TRUTH OR DARE!"

"What?" Christina asks. Everybody else is just as puzzled.

"Candor or Dauntless,"

"Ohhh…" the crowd says.

Uriah sits down on the floor, next to Marlene. She moves further away. Did he do something wrong?

"Um… Who wants to go first?"

"Me!"

"Zeke, you always go first!"

"Let Four go first!"

"No!" Four objects and repositions himself on the floor.

"Yes! I insist, I insist!" Zeke says dramatically.

"Okay! Um, Zeke-"

"NO! Then it'll be like Zeke goes first again!" Lynn says.

"Fine. Shauna, Candor or Dauntless?"

"WAIT!" Tris says.

"What?" Uriah is getting tired of the stalling.

"I'm not very familiar with this game,"

"YOU DON'T KN-"

"Just shut up! The thing is, I've never played it and I think I know how it works but I'm not sure. So, Candor is answering a personal question and Dauntless is doing some sort of a challenge. But do you have to do it? Can you skip a challenge or a question?"

"No. You have to do it. There IS NO WAY-"

"There is a way, Uri! Basically, if you don't wanna do it, take off a piece of clothing. But not like shoes or socks or accessories! And, by the way, you really have to answer the questions honestly," Marlene explains.

"Okay."

"Can we proceed?" Uriah asks, desperate.

"Yes."

"Okay, Shauna. Let's hear it!"

"Candor,"

Sounds of disapproval fill the room.

"Sorry! I'm a little tired!"

"Whatever. Um… um… If Zeke proposed to you now, would you say yes?"

"No."

Zeke stares at her.

"What? I don't wanna get married while I'm still 18!"

"Zeke! Cancel the sing-a-gram! Cancel it! Before you get publicly humiliated!" Uriah laughs.

"You actually wanted to propose?"

"No, Uriah is just messing around,"

"That's not what you told the wedding planner today!" Uriah teases.

"Shut up!" Zeke throws a pillow from the couch at him.

"Okay, my turn now!" Shauna says. She scans the room with her eyes quickly. "Lynn, dear sister!"

"Dauntless!"

"Ok… you have to go to the Pit and kiss the first person you see!" she laughs.

"Ok…" Lynn says slowly getting up.

"But wait! Someone has to go with you to make sure you did it."

"And also video record!" Marlene laughs.

"I'll go" Shauna volunteers. "I did give her the dare!"

"Wait! Have my video camera!" Zeke says browsing a miscellaneous drawer for a camera. He pulls out a camera and a box of cookies. "And also have a cookie."

Shauna and Lynn head to the Pit, sharing the cookie. Lynn walks into the Pit and Shauna stands behind a wall with the camera. Before Lynn stands Max. Lynn turns around to see Shauna giggling with the camera. But she kisses Max anyways, and the second later they both run away, Shauna almost falling of laughter.

"Did you get it, did you get it?" Uri asks.

"Who did she have to kiss?" Tris asks smiling.

"She had to… She had to…" Shauna collapses on the floor, clapping her hands together in silence like a retarded seal. Zeke takes the camera from her hand and everybody - well, everybody but embarrassed Lynn- gathers around him. Soon they all laugh, some in silence like Shauna. Four is the only one who stays serious. Even Tris giggles.

"Ok, ok… now that we're pretty much done laughing- except Shauna, Shauna, please get up and stop acting like a 5 year old who just saw an animated starfish fart- we can continue with our game."

"Ok…" Lynn looks around the room.

"Yo, Tris! Candor or Dauntless?"

"Dauntless, man!"

"Hmmm… Kiss the person you like the least- on the mouth- from this room,"

"The person I like the least? But I love all of you guys!"

"Then who do you LOVE the least?"

Tris stands up and looks around. She bites her lip and smiles. "God, I don't know…"

She takes off her shirt and sits down.

"Really, Tris. Really?" Lynn asks

Tris shrugs and and hugs her arms since she is now cold in a thin, black, sleeveless shirt. "Um… Four! Candor or Dauntless?"

"Dauntless."

"Go to highest mountain and bring back head of… THE MULTI BEAR!"

Everybody stares at her in silence.

"Kidding! Go to the Pit and bring somebody here to join us-"

Four gets up. "No problemo!"

"BUT! You only have 5 minutes and you have to do everything in complete silence. No explanation!"

"I'll witness!" Zeke jumps up.

They walk around the Pit in silence, Zeke smiling goofily.

"Um… I don't know anyone here…" Four whispers.

"3 minutes, bro! Better grab someone and get outta here!"

Four sighs and looks around one more time.

"Hey! There's someone we know!" Zeke points to one of the people.

"NO! No, Zeke! Just… no."

"2 minutes!"

"Fine, fine!" Four runs over to Eric and grabs his arm. He starts dragging him to Zeke and Uriah's place.

"Four! Stop it! Let me go, you idiot!" Eric demands.

Four wishes to speak up, but remembers the rules.

"What are you doing?!" Eric slaps Four's arm with his free hand.

"Ouch," Four whispers, wanting to punch back.

Finally, they arrive at the door. Zeke opens it, saying: "M'ladies!" and laughing.

"Really though? Was he the only option?" Tris demands to know.

"The only one we knew!"

"What is this?! I demand an explanation!" Eric almost screams and shakes Four's arm off of his.

"We're playing Candor or Dauntless! 'Wanna join?" Marlene asks cheerfully like she's not talking to the guy who almost threw Christina off the chasm.

"You people are sick! I will not stand for this madness!" Eric's face turns bright red with anger.

"YOU HAVE TO! IT WAS A DARE!" Uriah demands.

"Well, I can't argue with that logic!" Eric shrugs.

"So? What are we waiting for? Let's continue the game!"

"Ok… Umm… Eric, truth or dare?" Four asks avoiding eye contact.

"No, somebody else. I was just dragged here and if you wanna keep me in the game, you'll ask somebody else now!" Eric refuses.

"Fine… Al?"

"Candor."

"Pansycake!" Uriah exclaims in a singsong voice.

Al ignores him. You know, as one does.

"Who do you have a crush on?"

"Tris" Al says. Yes, they all saw that coming. Except for Four. He doesn't look amused.

"Ehm… Will, Candor or Dauntless?" Al asks awkwardly, still red from embarrassment.

"Um… Let's say… Dauntless,"

"You, sir, are no pansycake!" Uriah interrupts.

"I challenge you… to… play seven minutes in heaven with Christina!"

Will and Christina both become red with embarrassment but head to the closet anyways.

Seven minutes later, Al looks at his watch and exclaims "seven minutes are up, let's get them out of there. Things are probably super awkward in there by now…" Al says heading to the closet. When he opens it, he finds Christina in her bra, and Will kissing her.

"WHAT?" Zeke jumps.

"Oh gosh…" Christina says putting her black T-shirt over her bra.

"Uhm… We… lost track of time! Is it seven minutes already? It felt shorter to me!" Will tries to get the attention away from what just happened.

"Are you two… dating?" Al asks.

"I wouldn't say that we're really dating, we're-"

"Just friends, right? Don't worry, we believe you, we just saw the proof in the closet! Friendly!" Uriah laughs.

Christina and Will say no more, but blush and sit on the couch.

"So… Will! Your turn!" Zeke says.

"Really?" he doesn't seem too happy to have everyone staring at him again.

"You know the rules!"

"Ok. Grace- Candor or Dauntless?"

"Dauntless, ya-huh!"

"Yay-a!" Uriah says.

"Find two people and tell one that he's cheating on you with the other. And then slap both!" Will finally comes up with something and seems so inspired, he's slightly less red in the face now.

"Noo! No, no, no!"

"Come on, Gracie!" Uriah begs.

"Ok…"

"Yes! Let's slap some people!" Uriah jumps and runs after Grace who's already heading out.

"Who shall be our victim?" she asks.

"Those two! There! They're standing close to each other but not in the way like they actually know each other. That's good!"

"Okay," Grace clears her throat. "YOU!" she points her finger to one of the silhouettes. "You cheated on me!"

"What the hell, Erudite?" says a familiar voice.

"Yes, you know what you did! You cheated on me with HER!" she says pointing at the girl on her left.

"What are you doing? Are you crazy?" the guy says and comes out of the shadows. Mortified, Grace realizes the guy is Peter. And when she takes a better look at the girl, she realizes she's Lauren.

She looks at Uriah who starts laughing like a maniac and shows Grace to keep going.

She sighs and continues, less convincing. "I will never forgive you for this you… uhm, pig, yes, pig! Now get lost and never come back!" she says and slaps Peter. Then she turns to Lauren and slaps her, too.

She finishes of with an offensive yet attractive hair flip and walks back to Uriah.

When they return back to the apartment and tell everybody what happened laughs start to echo trough the room. Suddenly, somebody knocks on the door.
